Bright Sadness: A Creative Journey through the Joy, Sorrow, and Promise of Lent

Lent is a season of paradox-a time of deep reflection and repentance, yet also a path toward renewal and hope. In Bright Sadness, artist and writer Susan Campañano invites you on a 40-day pilgrimage from Ash Wednesday to Easter, where the sacred tension of sorrow and joy unfolds through scripture, prayer, and creative expression.Each week, you'll find prompts designed to encourage you to respond to God's Word with poetry, painting, journaling, or other forms of art. Woven throughout are Susan's own artworks, offering a visual meditation on the journey of Lent-moments of lament, longing, surrender, and resurrection joy.Whether you are an artist or simply someone seeking a fresh way to engage with the Lenten season, Bright Sadness is an invitation to slow down, create, and encounter God in the beauty of both grief and grace. Let this devotional be your companion as you walk toward Easter with open hands, a willing heart, and a spirit ready to be transformed.
